Woodland Cemetery (Monroe, Michigan)

Woodland Cemetery, früher auch als Grove Cemetery und Woodlawn Cemetery bekannt, ist ein öffentlicher städtischer Friedhof in 428 Jerome Street im südöstlichen Teil von Monroe, Michigan. Er hat eine Fläche von etwa vier Hektar und beherbergt mehr als 6500 Grabstätten. Der 1810 gegründete Friedhof ist einer der ältesten öffentlichen Friedhöfe Michigans. Die ältesten Grabstätten sind solche von Veteranen aus dem Amerikanischen Unabhängigkeitskrieg. Der Woodland Cemetery wurde am 2. Juli vom Michigan State Historic Preservation Office zu einer Michigan State Historic Site erklärt. Viele der frühen Bewohner Monroes, Politiker und Kriegsveteranen wurden auf dem Woodland Cemetery beigesetzt, darunter sind auch Teilnehmer der Schlacht von Frenchtown im Jahr 1813. Allerdings sind auf dem Friedhof auch Veteranen aller anderen wichtigen Kriege vom Unabhängigkeitskrieg bis zum Vietnamkrieg bestattet. Ein nennenswertes Grabmal auf dem Friedhof gehört der Familie von George Armstrong Custer und dessen Ehefrau Elizabeth Bacon Custer. Allerdings ist keiner von ihnen hier bestattet, sondern sein jüngerer Bruder Boston Custer und sein Neffe Henry Armstrong Reed, die am 25. Juni 1876 an der Seite von George Custer bei der Schlacht am Little Bighorn getötet wurden. Der Woodland Cemetery grenzt direkt an den Zion Cemetery; es handelt sich jedoch um zwei getrennte Friedhöfe.

Iglesia Presbiteriana de la Avenida Woodward

La Iglesia presbiteriana de la avenida Woodward es una iglesia ubicada en la avenida Woodward, en Detroit, Míchigan. Fue construida en 1911 en estilo neogótico y fue diseñada por el arquitecto Sidney Badgley. Se usó durante algún tiempo como la Iglesia de Dios de Abisinia en Cristo.​ El edificio fue incluido en el Registro Nacional de Lugares Históricos en 1982.​ Historia Para 1908, los presbiterianos de Detroit se propusieron construir una iglesia para servir a los feligreses ubicados en lo que entonces era el área "norte" de Woodward.​ Se llevaron a cabo reuniones y la congregación fue organizada por el presbiterio el 17 de marzo de 1908.​ La iglesia tenía 163 miembros. El reverendo Sherman L. Divine fue nombrado primer ministro de la congregación y se embarcó en el proyecto que costaría unos 100.000 dólares.​ La iglesia reclutó nuevos miembros y nuevos fondos. La piedra angular se colocó el 1 de enero de 1910.​ Comenzó la construcción, basada en un diseño de Sidney Rose Badgley. La iglesia se consagró el 23 de junio del año siguiente. La membresía superó los 2.200 feligreses en 1921. Sin embargo, en la década de 1950, muchos miembros abandonaban Detroit para ir a los suburbios del norte.​ El templo comenzó a tener problemas, con menos de 1000 miembros en 1961 y solo 404 en 1971. En 1981, se fusionó con la Covenant Church. Las iglesias combinadas todavía tenían menos de 500 miembros, pero en 1991 había solo 210. En 1993, la congregación se separó de la iglesia presbiteriana y finalmente se convirtió en la Iglesia Interdenominacional de Abisinia. Cerró tras la muerte del pastor en 2005. El edificio está abandonado y en mal estado. La propiedad ha sido comprada por un grupo que busca convertir el edificio en un refugio para personas sin hogar.​ Arquitectura De estilo neogótico inglés, la fachada del templo es de roca rugosa y está adornada con una piedra caliza. Mide 184 pies de largo por 104 pies de ancho.​ La fachada de Woodward Avenue cuenta con una enorme entrada de piedra tallada con un vitral de colores; dos torres cuadradas flanquean la entrada central. A lo largo del costado, los transeptos a dos aguas contienen ventanas trazadas de altura completa. Un ala educativa de dos pisos, construida al mismo tiempo que el edificio principal, linda con la parte trasera.​ Una cúpula de linterna, elevada sobre la línea del techo, ilumina el auditorio.​ Véase también Anexo:Registro Nacional de Lugares Históricos en Detroit AnexoːEdificios de la Avenida Woodward Edificios religiosos de la Avenida Woodward Arquitectura de Detroit Referencias Lectura adicional Hill, Eric J. and John Gallagher (2002).

Turtle Creek Stadium

Turtle Creek Stadium (formerly Pit Spitters Park and Wuerfel Park) is a 4,660-seat multi-use entertainment facility in Blair Township, Michigan, in the United States. It hosted its first regular season baseball game on May 24, 2006 as the tenants of the facility, the Traverse City Beach Bums, took on the Kalamazoo Kings. It was built as a new home for the Beach Bums baseball team, the first in Traverse City in 93 years. In 2018, the Beach Bums' owners retired and the park sold. In 2019, Wuerfel Park became home to Traverse City's new baseball team, the Traverse City Pit Spitters of the summer collegiate Northwoods League. History The ballpark is located on a 26-acre (11 ha) site adjacent to the Chums Village commerce park, three miles (4.8 km) south of Traverse City near the intersection of US 31 and M-37. The groundbreaking for Wuerfel Park took place in late 2004 and was completed in time for the Beach Bums' inaugural 2006 season. The ballpark's façade resembles that of a resort hotel, a feature unique to baseball stadium architecture. John and Leslye Wuerfel, the original namesakes of the stadium and the owners of Wuerfel Resorts and the Beach Bums, designed Wuerfel Park to reference the region's resort industry and to their own type of business. In 2018, the Traverse City Beach Bums and Weurfel Park were sold to a new ownership group led by the CEO of the West Michigan Whitecaps in Grand Rapids, Michigan. A new team, the Traverse City Pit Spitters, began playing at the park beginning in 2019, with the name changed to Pit Spitters Park with the sale. In 2019, nearby Turtle Creek Casino purchased the naming rights for the park, changing the name to "Turtle Creek Stadium" for the 2020 season. References

Ypsilanti Automotive Heritage Museum

The Ypsilanti Automotive Heritage Museum in Ypsilanti, Michigan is an automotive museum that features cars assembled at the nearby Willow Run Plant and vehicles made by Hudson Motors. The museum is an official site of the MotorCities National Heritage Area, which is "dedicated to preserving, interpreting and promoting the automotive and labor heritage of the State of Michigan." Miller Motors In 1916, Joseph H. Thompson opened a Dodge Brothers Motor Company dealership, possibly the first outside Detroit, in the north end of the Thompson Block. Soon after, Thompson moved his dealership across Cross Street, to the site of the museum. In 1927, Carl Miller opened a Hudson Sales and Service franchise on the site, and in 1955 the dealership was renamed Miller Motors, reflecting expanded product offerings. From 1927 until the Hudson Motor Car Company merged with the Nash-Kelvinator Corporation on May 1, 1954 to form American Motors Corporation (AMC), the dealership sold 1,969 new cars, and has retained and preserved all dealership records since opening. For about 20 years, Miller Motors continued as a used car and parts dealer specializing in Hudsons and Hudson parts. Before Miller Motors was bought and included as a feature of the museum, Miller Motors was "the place to go when [Hudson owners] needed clutch oil or touch-up paint, or wanted to buy or sell a Hudson." Former Museum Curator, Jack Miller, was known as an authority on restoring Hudson cars and the history of Hudson cars. Museum In the mid-1990s, Jack Miller, Paul "Skip" Ungrodt Jr, and Peter B. Fletcher opened the Ypsilanti Automotive Heritage Museum that included the Miller Motors building. The museum displays 30 cars. They range from a 1933 Hudson Terraplane K Series Coach to a 1991 Chevrolet Caprice police car that was manufactured at the nearby Willow Run Assembly Plant. The museum considers the "crown jewel" of their collection to be the 1952 Hudson Hornet, known as the Fabulous Hudson Hornet, owned by Herb Thomas when he won his second NASCAR Championship in 1953. The collection includes a Tucker automobile prop from the movie Tucker: The Man and His Dream. This is part of the Preston Tucker display as he was from Ypsilanti and did his engineering work a couple of blocks from the museum. The museum collection also includes "advertising, service, repair, and promotional items that were essential to the automobile business" during the second quarter of the twentieth century. The museum is open to visitors six days a week (closed Mondays), year-round, and sponsors Cruise Nights during the summer in Depot Town and their annual Orphan Car Show held in nearby Riverside Park.

Ypsilanti Historic District

The Ypsilanti Historic District is a historic district located along several blocks on each side of the Huron River in the center of Ypsilanti, Michigan. The original portion of the district was designated a Michigan State Historic Site in 1973 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978; additions to the district were nationally listed in 1989. Extent The Ypsilanti Historic District covers most of the older commercial sections of the city, as well as surrounding residential areas. The original, and largest, portion of the district extends roughly between Grove Street on the east, Hamilton Street on the west, Forest Avenue on the north, and Buffalo Street south. Three sections were added to the NRHP district in 1989: a northeast addition running along Forest, Oak, and Maple Streets extending east to Prospect Street, a southern addition running along South Adams between Ferris and Catherine Streets, and a western addition roughly extending the district west to Summit Street between Forest Street and Michigan Avenue. The district is the third largest historic district in the state. History The city of Ypsilanti was founded in 1823, and became an important railroad stop when the line was built through the city in 1838. As Ypsilanti grew, a commercial district sprang up on the Detroit-Chicago Road (now Michigan Avenue). In the late 1840s, a second commercial district (now known as Depot Town) grew up a few blocks to the northeast, near the railroad depot. In 1851, a substantial fire destroyed a sizable portion of the Michigan Avenue business district. The structures were quickly rebuilt, and many of the 1850s buildings still exist in the heart of the historic district. Description The core of the Ypsilanti Historic District contains approximately 400 contributing structures in two main areas. These are the commercial cores along Michigan Avenue and near the railroad depot on Cross Street (Depot Town). Huron Street, paralleling the river, links the two areas, and the structures around Huron Street are primarily residential in character. The residential structures include multiple examples of vernacular Greek Revival, Queen Anne, and brick Italianate houses. The commercial structures are substantially original two- and three-story brick structures. The northeast addition is residential in character, containing primarily frame Greek Revival, Queen Anne, and Tudor Revival houses constructed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The addition has 63 contributing structures, including both modest single family residences and grander homes that once housed elite citizens of the community. The south addition contains another 12 contributing residential structures, for the most part modest frame houses. The western addition to the district includes a little over 300 contributing structures, most of them single family homes. Many of these have been converted to apartments or fraternity houses due to the proximity of Eastern Michigan University.

Ypsilanti Vandtårn

Ypsilanti Vandtårn er et historisk vandtårn i Ypsilanti, Michigan, USA. Tårnet blev tegnet af William R. Coats og konstrueret som del af et mere omfattende vandføringsprojekt i byen, der begyndte i 1889. Beliggende på det højeste punkt i Ypsilanti og færdiggjort i 1890 kostede det ca. 21.000 USD. I dag spøges der ofte med tårnet pga. dets form. Derudover er tårnet blevet et vartegn for byen. Grundet bygningens udformning og beliggenhed bruges tårnet ofte til at angive retning for turister. Tårnet blev i 1896 optaget i National Register of Historic Places. Se også
Zehnder's

Zehnder's is a restaurant in Frankenmuth, Michigan, United States. It has seating for 1,500 people and features all-you-can-eat family-style chicken dinners, seafood, steaks, fresh baked goods and European desserts. Every year Zehnder's serves almost a million people. In the 1980s, it was one of the ten largest restaurants in the United States. History Zehnder's was originally built as the Exchange Hotel by Henry Reichle in 1856. Reichle ran the hotel for twenty years, after which it was sold and operated by several different people. In 1927, William Zehnder Sr. purchased the hotel remodeling the building, including redesigning its facade to resemble Mount Vernon. After World War II, the business grew rapidly. In March 1947, the business was turned over to Zehnder's children. The business became a corporation, and in the 1950s the Zehnders bought Fischer's Hotel located across the street, renaming it the Bavarian Inn in 1959. In 1955, William Zehnder Jr. (manager of the Bavarian Inn) and Edwin Zehnder (manager of Zehnder's Restaurant) purchased the interests of Zehnder's, Inc. from their brothers and sister. They re-decorated the restaurant in a Bavarian theme after visiting Bavaria on vacation, and the annual Frankenmuth Bavarian Festival began during their week-long grand re-opening celebration. John Zehnder, the executive chef and food and beverage manager at Zehnder's, received the 2011 Hermann G. Rusch Chef's Achievement Award from the American Culinary Federation.
